“Stop A Doc” before October 23

SeventyK wanted to bring awareness to the five things a doctor should know before treating a young adult with cancer, so they came up with the “Stop A Doc” campaign.

They said, “The video contest allows patients, caregivers, healthcare providers, advocates, and supporters to submit a video that teaches others what five questions to ask a healthcare provider or that demonstrates the five things to know before treating an AYA cancer patient.” Survivors can make a video asking health professionals the questions, and health professionals can make a video proving they know the answers.

Winners will receive a cash prize of $1,500 for first place, $300 for second place, and $200 for third place. The deadline for submissions is October 23.
